Thanks Christian. Now i understand why a PHP script worked fine on my ISP but not on my local server. My ISP runs with register_globals=On (probably due to so much confusion in their user base about the 4.0 change). When i get time, i'll rewrite my scripts to handle the (more secure) register_globals=Off setting.
